What's Happening With the Lawsuit?
« on: February 07, 2008, 09:55:51 PM »

Various scenarios have been floating around:

3ABN absolutely, no way, wants to settle!  (courtesy of Appletree on BSDA)

There have been overtures from "both sides" toward coming together for some type of resolution.

Brenda should testify since she was the first person to bring something up against Linda, according to Johann on BSDA.

So what is actually happening?

Sorry, thought my text was saved but was not...let me address these questions in sequence:
1) The better statement is that 3ABN is no longer willing to consider settlement at this time and this has been confirmed by the Chairman and President;

2)We did look at the feasibility of direct discussions but realized that if a window of opportunity existed, it was closed by DLS and the board at the annual meeting as they
seem to have a set of objectives that are unmet, and will not be met without sensible discussion that are simply unlikely to be allowed or considered by certain factions;

3)We would agree that Brenda should testify, after all she is on our witness list;

4)We are engulfed in discovery process and will remain the same for several months
and yes we do consider it an opportunity to discover ever more documents to support allegations, concerns and questions never answered or published. They refer to it as a
"phishing expedition", we call it uncovering the TRUTH!!!

Does 3ABN really think that they are going to win this lawsuit?

They do not necessarily have to win,If they can wear down the oppossition . If they can cause the other party in the suit to quit, they have won without ever entering a courtroom.

 Repeat a lie often enough and to many it becomes truth, especialy to the one telling the lies

Beware of those that verbally try to convince you they are Christian. Check your back pocket and make sure your wallet is still there. Next check your reputation to see if it is still intact. Chances are, one or both will be missing

It has been tried before. It was part of Adolf Hitler's philosophy, and with it he conquered a great part of the world until he was stopped by American and Allied troops during World War II. Will we let this philosophy continue to have a great impact on the Seventh-day Adventist Church?

It is surprising how many would let this go. I am sure those involved are not finding it an easy road. At times it is easy to feel if most don't care,"Why should I"
Just smoothing this over and pretending great changes are taking place with new parties involved really isn't taking care of it.
Unless all those willingly involved in this mess are removed, the change is cosmetic only

Cosmetic may be a bit too generous...how about a very diluted white-wash???
One we can see right through???

So 3ABN will not consider a settlement of the lawsuit at this time?

Is there some indication that the Board was divided on this point?

Is Walt Thompson still the 3ABN Board chairman?

I think you said in another thread, Gailon, that some of the Board members were unhappy with the results of the latest Board meeting.  Are there some, do you think, that do not share the fixation (for lack of a better term) on Danny Shelton that John Lomacang and Walt Thompson seen to have?
